Mid-week report: Injury update, etc.

It’s been exactly one week since we’ve hit you with any actual news regarding the Green Bay Packers.

Well, we’re back.

And what better way to kick-off our Mid-week report (weird saying that since, you know, it’s Thursday) with an injury update, courtesy of the fine folks at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

The Packers are almost as healthy [...]

Mid-season report card, part two

No catchy intro needed here. Enjoy part two.

Defense

If we were excited about the potential of Dom Capers’ new 3-4 scheme before the season, we’re anything but now. The run defense has been very good, this is true (ninth in the league, allowing 97.1 yards per game). And the pass defense, statistically, has also been very [...]

Mid-season report card, part one

I had to make a choice.

I could do what I usually do on Tuesdays and write some sort of lighthearted, (hopefully) funny post about why we as Packers fans hate the team’s upcoming opponent, the Dallas Cowboys. But seeing as how they’ve pretty much owned us for the past, oh, I don’t know, length of [...]

Regular season game seven vs. Minnesota: Heart says yes, head says no

Our hearts and our heads are often at war with each other.

Our hearts tell us to go with what we want to believe. Our heads tell us to go with what we know.

I tell you this because my heart and my head spent three hours Sunday afternoon battling it out over what to make of [...]

A Monday trip to the question department

As Oasis once said, questions are the answers you might need.

I’ve always loved that line and it seems to hold particular importance today. There are a few fairly major question marks surrounding the Green Bay Packers as they get ready for round two with Judas and the Queens on Sunday at Lambeau Field.

(On that note, [...]

Breaking down Packers vs. Browns

This one’s for you, Corey Williams.

Oh, you don’t remember Corey Williams? It’s okay – I can see why. He’s no one special.

Williams, in case you’ve forgotten, was a pretty good young d-tackle for the Packers awhile back. In 2006 and 2007 combined, he had 14 sacks.

The team, after being unable to reach agreement on a [...]

Strange but true: Green a Packer once again

It was late on Sept. 13 – or had it turned to Sept. 14? – when my friend Nathan and I noticed one Ahman Green signing autographs for fans from the front seat of his Hummer outside of Lambeau Field.

Green must have been there as a guest for the Bears game, we figured. It was [...]

Wednesday wrap-up: Green signs (and other notes)

What was rumored Tuesday became official Wednesday.

Ahman Green is a Green Bay Packer once again.

Green signed a one-year deal with the team. Terms were not disclosed. Green and former Indianapolis Colts running back Dominic Rhodes both worked out for the team Monday.

I’ll have a column expanding my thoughts on the Green signing later today, so [...]

No S-Jax? What a shame

Well, the trade deadline has come and gone and it took any hopes of the Green Bay Packers getting Steven Jackson with it.

I didn’t really hold out much hope that Green Bay would pull this deal off. In fact, it was more wishful thinking that anything else. Jackson’s too good and, at 26, probably too [...]

Is 2009 Clifton's last season as a Packer?

The 2009 edition of the Green Bay Packers are certainly a team with some questions surrounding them.

We already know most of them, but there is one question no one is really asking, at least as far as I know:

Is this season going to be Chad Clifton’s last as a Packer?

Clifton, heading into his 10th year [...]
